Imagine getting a phone call at work, in the middle of the day, from a person, who wishes to remain anonymous, telling you that your spouse wasn’t where they were supposed to be last Sunday night?
SHOCK. DISBELIEF. DENIAL.
Your whole world turned upside down in a matter of minutes.
What do you say? What do you do? Who do you tell? Where do you turn?
Suddenly, the day to day minutiae rapidly fades into the background, leaving only what’s most important, while at the same time, becoming one of the most painful experiences you’ve ever imagined.
Our Vision
“I’m Sarah. On September 20, 2022, my husband Paul found out that I was having a 9 year affair with a former coworker of mine. I was surprisingly relieved as well as scared and ashamed. I didn’t know what to do.”
“I’m Paul. On September 20, 2022, I found out that my wife Sarah was having a 9 year affair with a former coworker of hers. I was in utter disbelief as if I had just been stabbed in the heart. I didn’t know what to do.”
Our vision for this blog is to bring to light what happens when an affair is revealed, the emotions that unravel, the questions that arise and how to determine the next steps together. We have been together for 18 years (married for 14 years with 3 wonderful children) and we love each other with all our hearts. Despite the unfathomable tough road ahead, we want to stay together. We both want to put in the work. We want to separate the deed from the doer. And above all, we want to rebuild our relationship’s foundation from the bottom up.
We want to create “A New Us.”
Follow our journey as we write about our story in real time.
